The 360 Update - HDMI vs. RBG components

In this Update i compare the difference of HDMI and RBG component cords on a Sony Bravia. There really is no quality difference once you get to 1080p but when using the RBG cords it looks very disorganized

kind of a difference... whats the difference between 1080p and 1080i?

[Maione685]

@oWARF4REo 1080p refers to the size of the resolution 1920x1080 and the p stands for progressive. 1080i is the same but the i stands for interlaced. In my opinion progressive is 100 times better than interlaced. Hope that helped

@AleisterBane "HDMI" fix'd

the only thing that makes me like hdmi better is that it supports surround sound audio and video through the one cable.... other than that they both can pull off 1080P (provided that your tv supports 1080P through component, which most don't) and thus both look excatly the same to me... it's just ones analog and the other digital

You TV wont block component since it is Analog where as HMDI is digital so the HDCP does not affect Component just to clear this up

@yada147258 Even the Component only version is 1080p. Now most of the games are not 1080p. I think more ps3 games are 1080p then Xbox360 games are but their is 1080p xbox360 games. The reality is playing today's games in 720p is just fine. Now movies are another story. xbox360 HD-DVD outputs full 1080p 24fps movies without issue when connected via HDMI. Component can work as well if the display does not block it via Copy protect.

Of Course HD-DVD is a dead format but it proves my point.
